••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score

Business Description

ImmuCell Corporation was originally incorporated in Maine in 1982 and reincorporated in Delaware in 1987. It completed an initial public offering of common stock in 1987. The Company is engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of products that improve the health and productivity of cows for the dairy and beef industry. Its purpose is to create scientifically proven and practical products that result in a measurable economic impact on animal health and productivity in the dairy and beef industries. At the same time, it is investigating ways to develop new products utilizing First Defense and Nisin technologies. Its lead product, First Defense, is manufactured from cows' colostrum using its proprietary vaccine and whey protein purification technologies. The target disease, bovine enteritis (calf scours), causes diarrhea and dehydration in newborn calves and often leads to serious sickness and even death. First DefenseÒ is the only USDA-licensed, orally delivered scours preventive product on the market for calves with claims against E. coli K99 and coronavirus. During the fourth quarter of 2011, it sold the 11,000,000th dose of First DefenseÒ, since receiving USDA approval of this product in 1991. In 1999, it acquired Wipe OutÒ Dairy Wipes, which is its second source of product sales revenue. That transaction included the purchase of certain equipment, trademarks and a license of intellectual property, including several issued patents, covering the product and rights to develop skin and environmental sanitizing applications of the Nisin technology. Wipe OutÒ Dairy Wipes consist of biodegradable towelettes that are pre-moistened with a Nisin-based formulation to prepare the teat area of a cow in advance of milking. Nisin is an antibacterial peptide that has been demonstrated in clinical studies to be an effective aid in the reduction of mastitis-causing organisms in dairy cows. First DefenseÒ is generally sold through large, financially strong distributors, which it believes has resulted in minimal bad debt with respect to this product. The Company provides for a 50% account credit for domestic distributors on expired First DefenseÒ product, which has a two-year shelf life resulting in an immaterial amount of returns. The Company's competition in the animal health market includes other biotechnology companies and major animal health companies. In addition to direct competition from oral antibody products, First DefenseÒ also competes for market share against vaccine products that are used to increase the production of antibodies by the dam that can then be transferred through the mother's milk to the calf and against vaccine products that are administered to the newborn calf.
